This Week in NYC: May 2-8

Happy Monday! I’m straight off a red eye after a wonderful weekend of insanely delicious bites and perhaps a few too many cocktails at Bon Appetit’s Vegas Uncorked event. Monday is going to be manic to say the least. We’ll be sure to keep the party going with the bevy of fun events going down in the city this week from Burger Week to Derby Days.

MondayBurger lovers, this is your week. To kick off National Hamburg Month, Schweid & Sons is hosting its annual NYC Burger Week event through May 7. This delicious event features a slew of activities throughout NYC where attendees can enjoy off-menu treats, special restaurant collaborations, and much more. Today, you can head to Joe’s Bar for a Willy Wonka-themed burger on a rainbow bun, drinks, and tons of foodie fun. Various locations

TuesdayJazz up your jewelry collection with stylish stackable rings and customized fur and feather earrings by Tuleste. The accessories brand, founded by former magazine editors Satu and Celeste Greenberg, is hosting a can’t-miss shopping party at Gallow Green — one of our favorite places to brunch. Guests can also score a custom painted portrait by Blair Breitenstein with every purchase. More information about the Pom Pom party here.542 W. 27th St. New York, NY 10001
